Wow. What a gem!

 

[spiritwoodturner]

Wow, Marc, was this purloined, obtained, or hijacked? That is a sizeable piece. Pieces that size don't grow on trees, ya know...

SCHWEEEEEEEEEET!

 

[marcruby]

I'd like to say I've been raising it from childhood, but the truth is that I have a local wood dealer who knows what I look for and keeps a careful eye out for me when he's restocking.
